Product Description

The vampire Lucita is a prisoner to the fanatical monsters of the Sabbat, who are forcing her to hunt for a hidden enemy and powerful shadow-caster. Every night in captivity further erodes her soul and enslaves her to the sect born of the murder of the tyrannical progenitor of Clan Lasombra.

But soon enough, these concerns fade before the mounting evidence that the enemy they all face is no mad ritualist or lone elder. The shadows whisper words of doom: if this is the final night, it will last forever.

Lasombra returns.

Customer Reviews

A good start
This book tells us where Lucita goes after the assassination of her sire in Clannovel: Assamite. After centuries of thwarting the "old bastard's" schemes she suddenly finds herself without a focus, and she knows just how dangerous that is for a vampire of her age. She sets off to meet old acquintances (yes, Fatimah the Assamite is one of them) and gather advice, knowing fully well that without a resolution to her spiritual crisis she will soon be in the claws of the Beast.

Meanwhile, the Sabbat is not so happy with the thought of the rogue who destroyed some of their best and brightest on the East Coast running free. A hunting pack is formed to find Lucita, and we follow them in about half the book.

I have to say, Bishop Andrew and his fellow hunters are sometimes more interesting than Lucita, and you find yourself cheering them on sometimes. Shadows is a good start of a good trilogy.
